Unsouled

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

The beginning of the New York Times best-selling Cradle series!

Unsouled introduces us to Lindon, who is born Unsouled, the one person in his family unable to use the magical Paths of the sacred arts. He employs every trick and technique he can borrow or steal to improve his life, yet it seems he will never be able to join the ranks of the truly powerful.

Until the heavens descend and show him the future.

When Lindon becomes the only one who sees the approaching doom, he must leave his homeland to save it... and to see how far he can go by walking his own Path.

SERIES DESCRIPTION

The Cradle series is a best-selling example of the Progression Fantasy subgenre, a category of fantasy where the primary plot revolves around a character growing more powerful in their use of magic. Cradle is high-stakes, fast-paced, and action-focused, with minimal time dedicated to world-building. Thus, the books are lean and focused.

The series is often compared to anime, with fans describing it as "anime in book form" or "fantasy novels meet Dragon Ball Z," highlighting the story's specialty in loud and colourful super-powered battles.
